Chapter 1- Regret.
Why can't I stop thinking like this? He gone, for good. Then why? Why do I still have hope? Hope that he will someday return? The dark mirrors broken, shattered, like my heart. Then why, do I talk to my shadow, in hopes that it's him I'm really talking to, and not a creation of the sun. Please, tell me. PLEASE!
I lay on my bed, flipping through an old book of mine, when Red bursts into the room. "Vio! Vio! You have to help me!"
"What is it this time?" I ask, irritation intertwined with my voice.
"It's Blue. He's really angry at me. Now he wants to clobber me!" Red complains, tears brimming in his blue eyes.
'Of course. Those two are always at it, but always seem to make up in the end.' I think to myself, whilst putting my book down. "I'll see what I can do."
"Yay!" Red exclaims, sniffing a little.
But before I can even get up from my bed, Blue burst in, scorch marks all over his skin. He looks as if a fire dragon from Skyrim was just attacking him, that's how bad it is.
"There you are…." Blue says, in a deep gruff voice.
"What the hell happened?" I ask, rubbing my temples.
"THIS one is what happened!" Blue points toward Red. "He got his hands on his fire rod again, and blasted me with it square in the face."
A slight chuckle escapes my lips. It was always Red who brought humor along with his mistakes, and each one more funny then the last. 'Shadow would love to see this….No! Stop thinking of him!' I think to myself, shaking my head slightly.
"You okay Vio?" Red asks, his voice wavering a bit.
"W-what?" I ask looking up.
"You were mumbling something about Shadow again, completely lost in thought." Blue says, leaning against the wall.
I didn't even realize I was thinking out loud. I scratch the back of my head, sweat forming on the palms of my hands.
"It's okay, nothing to worry about. Now, let's get you guys dealt with." I say, my cool and collected self-back.
"It's okay, I think we're good now. I think you really need some alone time. So do us." Blue said, putting his arm around Reds shoulder, a blush forming on both of their faces.
"Um…okay, I guess." I say, waving goodbye as they walk out my bedroom door.
Once their gone, I fall back into my bed. My eyes feel as heavy as lead, and just want to close tight for a long time. I allow them that wish, and fall asleep.
It would be great if shadow were here to keep me warm. Like old times. Why can't he be here now? Did I break his trust and heart so much that he decided to break the mirror? Is that why he left? Because of my betrayal? I regret so much, but my biggest regret, is letting him shatter the dark mirror, and my heart.
Hope you enjoyed the first chapter of a hero and his shadow! Please review!
